Where are Skechers products made?

China and Vietnam were the principal manufacturing countries identified in the 2024 report. The September 2025 successor report documents the acquisition and continued business; it does not assign an individual shoe to a named factory. [2][3]

Is Skechers made in China or the USA?

China is a confirmed major source, alongside Vietnam. A US company address does not establish US shoe assembly; the reviewed records do not identify a US Skechers shoe factory. [2]

Same factory, different label

Skechers’ use of independent suppliers does not prove its shoes are identical to another label’s. The 3G acquisition changes ownership, not the identity of every supplier or the specifications of each shoe. [1][2]
